by James Patterson & Andrew Gross
For lifeguard Nick Kelley, things are almost too perfect. He spends his days eying bikini blondes at a posh Florida resort and shares his nights with Tess, his gorgeous girlfriend. To make matters even better, his buddies have offered to cut him a seemingly risk-free role in a painting heist that will make them all millionaires. Then bang, bang, bang, it all explodes: Tess is brutally murdered and all his co-conspirators are massacred, leaving guess who as the leading suspect?
"It's a twisty story that will engage the interest of beach-goers
everywhere, whose sun-addled brains will put up with pedestrian
writing and an improbable plot just to find out exactly whodunit and
why." - Publishers Weekly.
"Patterson and Gross have come up with an enjoyable thriller," - Library Journal.
